Workshop on Data Mining for Energy Modeling and Optimization (DaMEMO'16)

For More Details

Call For Papers

Machine learning and data mining techniques have been successfully applied in domains such as social media, e-commerce, health informatics, natural language processing and computer vision. There are ample opportunities for using data mining techniques to tackle the significant energy challenges we are faced with nowadays in energy modelling, analysis and conservation, for instance:

The rising awareness of sustainability and environmental preservation has contributed to a boom in renewable energies such as solar and wind power whose intermittency and dynamics need to be harnessed systematically.

A large amount of data from smart meters is being collected and there is a need to understand usage patterns of customers and plan changes and incentives to optimise the electricity usage, ensuring reliable supple at a minimum cost.

The increasing use and reliance on digital technologies have contribute to the proliferation of electrical and electronic equipment, devices, phones and sensors which all consume energy constantly.

While aggregating computing power, the popularization of cloud computing has led to the colossal energy consumption in data centres, much of which can be adaptively planned and reduced.

This workshop aims at bringing researchers from data mining, forecasting, energy and power engineering and other disciplines to explore the utilization of data mining techniques to develop intelligent solutions for energy related modelling and optimization problems.
